We men ignore a lot of our health issues, but one health issue you should pay attention to is prostate problems.
The prostate is part of the male reproductive system and the health of your prostate is important to a man’s sexual health. Ignoring the tell-tail signs of prostate problems can have major health concerns as you get older.

What is a prostate

If you don’t already know what a prostate is, then you should. The prostate is an important part of the male reproductive system. It’s a gland, located in the lower abdominal cavity, just below the bladder, and in front of the rectum, and behind the pubic bone. It’s pretty tucked away! It partially surrounds the urethra. (For the none medically minded, that’s your pee pipe). The urethra is the tube or channel that carries urine to the penis from the bladder and it runs right through the middle of the prostate. A healthy prostate is about the size of a walnut and weighs about 1 ounce.

Men, let’s be truthful, we tend to ignore a lot of our health issues, but we really shouldn’t. If you’re aged around 40 or above you really should take note of what your body is telling you. For example, if you have been for a pee and it burns, you’ll probably just think, “ow that hurt a bit”. Or, you may think you might have a bit of a water infection. But if it’s regular, you should get yourself to a GP and get it checked out. It may be a sign of an enlarged prostate or worse.

Dads, how do you handle things when it comes to talking about periods and puberty? Are you comfortable talking about your daughters first period?

Let’s be honest, their daughter’s first period is not something most dads think about, is it? Well, I’d like to think the role of a parent should be fluid (no pun intended). Theirs a lot of new stay at home dads these days and some are having new experiences watching their child grow up. Physical maturity, periods, hormones, testosterone, and puberty are all part of the process.

Lets look at daughters though, for this article. Some daughters are close to their dads and some closer to their mams. In terms of which parent to turn to when your daughter starts her first period isnt a case of pick and choose. Being informed is key to making this first step into maturity easy for your daughter.

#AD Love Corn is a delicious, crunchy roasted snack. The corn kernels are packed with flavour. They’re sugar free, gluten free and vegan.
If you’ve read my blog regarding food, you’ll know my family are the pickiest eaters going. We snack a lot. Biscuits, crisps, sweets, and chocolate. Although we’re fully aware that, what we’re eating is full of sweeteners, sugars, additives, fats, and oils.

Basically, we need a healthier snack in our house. There’s nothing wrong with snacking, but it has to be healthy, right? My lot won’t eat things like dried fruit, or any of the ‘fancy’ healthy food. They’d quite happily munch on a bag of nuts or crisps. We need an alternative to crisps and nuts…

Introducing @lovecorn_snacks
Love corn is a premium crunchy corn snack. They’re sugar free, gluten free and vegan. What’s a premium crunchy corn snack!? Well, put simply, they are lightly roasted and flavoured corn kernels. That’s it. Nothing more and nothing less.

The guys and girls over at Love Corn, sent me and my family a VIP box, to try out. I must admit I was a bit skeptical at first. I like corn on the cob, I like sweetcorn, I like popcorn and I like the flakes of corn you get as cereal. But… Roasted, flavoured corn?

Love Corn comes in 4 great flavours (with more on the way):
SEA SALT FALVOUR.
SMOKED BBQ FLAVOUR.
SALT & VINEGAR FLAVOUR
HABANERO CHILLI FLAVOUR
